Our Primary Tap Class is the perfect introduction to the rhythmic world of tap dance for young dancers. Designed for children who are new to tap or have a little bit of experience, this class focuses on building foundational tap skills in a fun, creative, and supportive environment. Through engaging exercises, games, and routines, students will develop rhythm, coordination, and musicality while learning the basic tap steps that form the building blocks of this dynamic dance style.

In this class, students will start with simple tap techniques such as shuffles, flaps, pick-ups, and tap combinations. As they master these basic steps, they will learn how to combine them into rhythmic patterns and short choreographed routines, helping them develop timing, footwork precision, and a strong sense of rhythm. Tap dance is a unique style that emphasizes making music with your feet, so students will also explore the sounds and patterns created by different tap steps, learning how to create a variety of rhythms.

Primary Tap focuses on the fundamentals of tap technique, including proper posture, foot placement, and musicality. The class is designed to be fun and energetic, encouraging children to express themselves while learning the importance of timing and rhythm. Students will also build strength and coordination through exercises that improve balance, flexibility, and speed, all while fostering a love of movement and performance.

This class is the perfect way to build a strong foundation in tap technique while also developing confidence, rhythm, and stage presence. Our teachers create a positive and nurturing atmosphere where every child can thrive, whether they are learning the basics or refining their technique.
